Do you get depressed during the Christmas holidays?

[biteme]

It's supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year as the song goes. But, it boasts the time of year of the highest suicide rate. Many people have deep depression at this time of year. Discuss

Very depressing .....

I do. It might be because I don't have a girlfriend and see all the happy people around. It makes me want to puke.

I never have before now. There's just so much stuff going on in my life right now, I am dreading 2 days of being grilled by loved ones. I don't have a clue how to act "normal" right now.

All of the members of my small family have died in the month of December.....my dad died on Christmas Eve & my sister didn't even bother to call me to tell me....now my only aunt has had a stroke & I just can't deal with it - so I've avoided calling to ask about her.....

I fucking hate December, Christmas & all the commercialism the season brings.....

well the whole suicide thing isn't true. http://www.snopes.com/holidays/christmas/suicide.asp

But I've been depressed for about 3-4 years now so I see no difference from season to season.

Well, I'm not really depressed about it anymore but I just don't give a crap about the holidays....the holiday doesn't really mean a lot to me either....
